Salmos 41

1 Bienaventurado el que entiende sobre el pobre; en el día malo le libre Jehová.

Blessed is he that considereth the poor: YHWH will deliver him in time of trouble.

2 Jehová le guarde, y le dé vida; sea bienaventurado en la tierra, y no le entregues a la voluntad de sus enemigos.

YHWH will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.

3 Jehová le sustentará sobre la cama de dolor; toda su cama revolviste en su enfermedad.

YHWH will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.

4 Yo dije: Jehová, ten misericordia de mí; sana a mi alma, porque he pecado contra ti.

I said, YHWH, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.

5 Mis enemigos dicen mal de mí: ¿Cuándo morirá, y perecerá su nombre?

Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?

6 Y si me venía a ver, hablaba mentira: su corazón le amontonaba iniquidad: salido fuera, hablaba.

And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.

7 Congregados murmuraban contra mí todos los que me aborrecían; contra mí pensaban mal para mí.

All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.

8 Cosa pestilencial, dicen, se ha pegado en él; y el que cayó en cama, no volverá a levantarse.

An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.

9 Aun el varón de mi paz, en quien confiaba; el que comía mi pan, engrandeció contra mí el calcañar.

Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.

10 Mas tú Jehová, ten misericordia de mí, y házme levantar; y pagárles he.

But thou, O YHWH, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.

11 En esto conocí que te he agradado, porque mi enemigo no triunfará contra mí.

By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

12 Y yo en mi integridad me has sustentado: y me has hecho estar delante de ti para siempre.

And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.

13 Bendito sea Jehová, el Dios de Israel, de siglo a siglo. Amén, y Amén.

Blessed be YHWH Elohim of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
